DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT With particular reference to Figures 1 and 2, pitched roof structures of the common or conventional type. (32) and a building using vertical side walls (34). roof and walls are horizontal External or air-facing surfaces installed end-to-end in courses or rows of It is being said. Each successive higher course is connected to a neighboring lower course. or overlap in the upper part of the column as best shown in FIG.

6.7.11.1 Each building gunnel (40) is approximately equal in thickness. 5. One rectangular flake, as shown in Figures 19 and 21, is made of chipboard. , made of wood composites such as particle board, plywood or hardboard. ·or The flannel is a relatively flat surface bounded by a long top or head (44). or a flat back surface (42) and a generally parallel lower or root portion (42) exposed to the atmosphere. 46). Each panel has the grooves described below and the grooves shown in Figures 6.7.11 and 15. Smaller thickness of molded or embossed reservoirs at opposite ends of the channel construction drawing The outer or air-facing surface (60 ) formed by The outer surface (60) has a flat, smooth string along the upper edge. It includes a neck or head overlapping part (62), and this cord-like part area covers all the building blocks. including a partial or small portion of the surface area as the main body of the cutting panel. upper end The narrow head-overlap surface along the next adjacent upper row still remains the course (see Figure 2). A narrow string on the back surface along the lower part of each continuous flannel when lined up (as shown) It is placed under the department. When lined up as shown, the narrow The overlapping or facing parts of the wall are approximately between continuous courses or rows on the roof. Forms a watertight head stack.

The outside air-facing surface of each flannel is located below the narrow upper head wrap (62). including a relatively large lower surface portion (64) at the upper end (44) of the rake; thin marks or shallow marks parallel to and spaced between the exposed roots (46) of The groove (66) defines a narrow upper head overlap (62). Shallow groove size guy The dot line (66) is aligned on the later external dimensions or course on the building wall or roof surface. It serves as a guide to help you learn.・E-nel (40) is usually located on the right side of the course ” The lining mark still has a short line (68). The marks placed on these courses are In the next lower course or row as the roofing or siding operation progresses. It is on the same line as the upper end of the gunnel (44) in .

In accordance with the present invention, the outer surface (64) of the outer surface (60) that contacts or is exposed to the atmosphere is Random width and order arranged in edge-to-edge relationship within a common external dimension or course as shown. It looks very similar to a plurality of individual roof shingles or roofing elm Preferably, the shape is given by high relief so as to give a shape. Each roof element The thread ends along the lower root, which coincides with the edge of the overall building or flannel, and a groove between a pair of adjacent individual shingle elements in the exterior surface (64); A groove or channel (7G) is provided, which is a guide groove or line for driving the nail. (6G) From a shallow or minimum depth at the upper end of the building... Taper downward or at the root (46) to a lower greater or maximum groove depth. It has the same dimensions. Each week expands to reach exactly the height of the nailing guide line. The outer surface and details of a pair of nearby shingle elements (64a) with side reliefs. It will always be the same height.

Grooves with grooves are cut into deep openings at the bottom or base of the groove. As a result, the overall appearance is similar to that of cedar shingles or shingles on the roof surface. They are very similar to the two and cannot be distinguished. The relatively thick root of each flannel ( along grooves (7) between each pair of adjacent embossed shingle elements; 6) reaches its maximum depth, and in extreme cases this depth is equal to the nominal thickness of the entire panel. Smaller than that.

The tapered, deepening grooves create a thick shaded appearance that helps the individual shingles It really does look exactly like a building with a cedar shingle roof. groove ``The most /'' Tapering to the depth and the curving head that reaches the overlapping cord-like area. The course adjacent to Mizuga/Guneru is fanned by the wind as it widens at the top of the groove near the line. There is very little molding underneath the head stack between the two. Rather, the water is shallow upwards Adjacent shingles on either side of the gutter, flowing out from the sides of the gutter at the end. It tends to run down the outer surface of the element. This peculiar groove (76) is In addition, the building IP channel (40) extends over its entire length above the nailing guide groove (66). In other words, dimensions that maintain the overall nominal thickness without interfering with the Another great feature is that it can be fixed to the wall or roof of a building in this area. A close fit is achieved along the strongest part of each -Q channel.・Yaneru (40) In this way it is strong when needed and is a problem for many shingles and roofing materials. If you bow towards the earth or open your mouth, fortune-telling will not occur.

Each panel (40) is also formed in the soil (6o) exposed to the outside atmosphere and Located in the upper head lap or lace (52) near the end (44).

The guide mark (70) is approximately 1/3 of the total length of the panel along the upper edge inward from the right edge. Located at a convenient distance.

As shown in Figure 24, the Hijikata anchors are lined up in the first course; The offset guide hole is used to align the right edge of the panel with a second course. same As shown in the figure, the offset guide holes attached to the - and flannel of the second course are attached to the panel of the third course. Used to line up the right edge of the file.

The course offset guide mark (70) is inserted inward from one end of the flannel. When the distance is approximately 1/6 of the total length of the flannel, the course direction of the flannel is a wall or roof. The 0th course change performed on the structure is repeated in rows.・Course on Q channel The positioning of offset guide marks can be changed to different edge spacings, e.g. , If you wish, you can change it to random intervals, but the labor cost will increase to some extent.

If this is done, there is a chance that successive courses will repeat periodically. becomes smaller, resulting in a truly random pattern. However, depending on the direction of the course, Repeating every sixth course or row is almost imperceptible to the eye and improves the build process. provides truly aesthetic as well as economical shielding for the environment.

The building monels (40) in Figures 6.7.10 and 15 are of the same course or or the bottom part on the opposite side (far right) of the next adjacent gunnel (40) in the row. The mating plate at one end (the left end) is overlapped on the end (50S). Including the end (48S) overlapping the chestnut, on the right side of Figures 6.10.14 and 18. The interlocking joint that overlaps with the next joint, as best shown in Form. The overlapping end (48S) is the upper edge (44) of the flannel (40) and the lower Extending between the rims (46), twisted .gunnels are lined up with their ends touching and fit between them. When forming a shank-shaped joint, the upper or surface a flat or substantially planar lower surface (49) served to overlie (51); Equipped with

As best shown in Figures 4.8.12 and 16, surfaces (49) and (51) outer surface (60) from a minimum amount of depth or spacing at the upper end (44) of the wall. The lower edge (46) is sloped to a greater or maximum spacing or depth; sloping or tapering to a greater or greatest amount of spacing or depth There is. For this Qi P-, 5.6.9.1. 0.13.14.When lined up as shown in Figures 17 and 18, grooves or open air Underneath the adjacent panel between the inner end faces (53) where the gaps (54) directly face each other. Formed between the outer end surface (55) of the end (50S) that enters the side and the overlapped end (48S) be done. The expansion spacing (54) extends between adjacent shingle surface elements (6) within the panel body. It looks similar to the tapering groove (76) between 4).

The overlapping end (48S) is parallel to the twisted upper outer end surface (55) and is downwardly raised 1 (49S). ) includes an inner end surface (57) that is perpendicular to . Similarly, on the other side of the panel The part (5o) that enters the bottom at the right end is parallel to the plane (53) and is also inclined The outer surface (51) includes an outer end surface (59) that is a vertical surface. Panel (4o) is the 6.10.14 and 18. When arranged side by side, the lower 1111 (49) of the overlapping end (40S) contact the outside of the edge (50S) that enters the underside of the panel, with a close flat surface between these surfaces. Surface contact is made by connecting overlapping joints that do not allow water to pass through to adjacent contact surfaces. A tapered groove or expansion interval (54) formed between surfaces (53) and (55). ).

According to the invention, the panels (4o) are formed by a pair of panels arranged end to end in one course or or when arranged in rows, define an expansion gap (54) with a predetermined width and A spacer element that projects laterally outward from the adjacent end face I11 to maintain (65). The protrusion of the spacer is located near the upper edge (44) of the e-flank. , below the head overlapping string part (62) or below the nail guide Ell (66). It extends and stands out. The panel is located above within the top portion (62) of the narrow head. Secured to the roof or wall structure by nails or fasteners spaced along the edge. determined. Therefore, the sutakusa (65) is exposed to the outside air by the overlapping panels on it. In addition to being hidden from direct exposure, it is also kept in place relative to the nail. fixed, so that the tendency to expand laterally by any appreciable amount is minimal It is. The surface of the outer edge of the sutaku-sa directly abuts the near end surface of the adjacent channel. Since the contact is made with There is a possibility that buckling or warping may occur due to the impression between the edge of the panel and the edge of the panel that comes into contact with it. few. - When the tunnels are installed in each course or row so that the ends touch the edge of the panel butts against the outer edge of the sweeper (65) of the other panel. , this allows expansion gaps to be removed without requiring the judgment or anticipation of the person installing the panel. (54) automatically determines the desired width. Furthermore, the base two takes the -8 channel. When installing a panel, the person installing the panel should remove or Eliminates the possibility of forgetting to provide expansion gaps for everything.

The hardener is dimensioned with a width or has a tapered groove (7G). It extends laterally outward 9II for a distance that is approximately the same as the width of. Therefore adjacent surfaces The clearance or spacing (54) between (53) and (55) is the width of the tapered groove. They are determined to be approximately equal. Connect it like this between the end faces (53) and (55). The gap formed by the free lateral expansion and contraction of the lower part of the body of the flannel (40) Allowing % and expansion interval (54)I''i, butt closely against adjacent joint ends Installation of panels bordering edges with edge spacers (65) In the meantime, it will be determined automatically. In appearance, the gap gap or expansion gap (54) is tapered. It fits well in the groove (76) with a The possibility of roll-up or buckling occurs by adding the groover protrusion (65) to the role. It can be minimized or completely eliminated.

In the building panels of Figures 6-61, there are hardeners or protrusions (6 5) is near the upper end of the inner end surface (53) associated with the right-hand end of the channel ξ through which it is shown. The zones are located close together, and the zones are lined up with their edges touching as shown in the right part of Figure 6. When the base plate (54) is folded, the lower facing end surfaces (57) and (59) are also cut. It can be decided in time.

Panel (40) in Figure 7 is a spacer located near the upper end of the outer end face (59). - (56), and as shown in the right part of Fig. When arranged in a single course or row with the spacers, (54) It is formed between the opposite end (57) and C59).

The spacer (65) above the nominall (40) in Fig. 11 is the overlapping end (48S) It is located at the left end at the upper end of the outer end face (55) of. I would like to thank you for this service. 65) is the desired expansion gap (54) between the adjacent panel end faces (53) and (55). A similar spacer (54) is provided on the lower side of the twisted end (48S) between It is again ensured that the lower end faces (57) and (59) are defined. Figure 15 panel (40) near the upper edge of the inner end face (57) at the left end of the panel. The spacer includes an end spacer or protrusion (65) located close to the end face. The facing lower end surfaces of the adjacent panels between (53) and (55) (57) and (55) 9) re-assure that it will be decided between.

With reference to Figures 19 to 23, the Building Nonel C4 shown therein 0) is generally flat, with approximately planar left and right hand end surfaces (48) and (50)k. They are perpendicular to the upper and lower edges (44) and (46) and generally is perpendicular to the back surface (42) and the outer surface (60). in the same row or course. The joint between adjacent ends of the flannel is connected to the upright flan at the upper end. The water is drained by the sheet metal water cutter member with the pipe (63a), and these water cutters are A retaining member is formed between adjacent edges of the panel by means of a suction member (65). The swath (65) is adapted to form a channel bottom for the groove or gap (54). Cut off at the right end face (50) of the panel in Figure 19 or the surface of the panel in Figure 21 It is located at the left end of (48). The panel has a draining element (63) When placed in a predetermined position and lined up with their edges touching as shown in FIG. The circuit (65) has an adjacent surface whose width is approximately equal to the width of the groove (76) in the panel body. A gap size or interval is provided between (50) and (48). Joint between paired panels The gap (54) has a very good appearance and is connected to the roofing element (64a). It is difficult to distinguish from the grooves on the panel surface between the two.

As shown in Figure 24, the roof or wall structure is Extend outward 1111K beyond the line " surface by the building panel (40) by applying a course of covered. The ``sawn line'' is then the distance outward from the gable end of the building. Leave. Successive panels in the first course are then arranged edge-to-edge in a row. It will be done. The second course extends beyond the left edge of the edge panel within the first course to the left. Start at the left edge of the first panel (48/48S) in a course that extends outward toward the It will be done.

[) so that the leftmost panel of the 6th course is the beginning panel of the 2nd course. It extends further to the left and outward. Eventually these outwardly projecting panels The ends are cut along the "saw line". The cut part is sometimes the opposite of the course The length and requirements of the structure in % at the side (right gJ11) end or other parts of the structure It is used depending on the distance covered by the panel. How to arrange Guneru explained You can also start from the right l110 corner along the lower edge or eaves, Buildings or roofs proceeding from right to left within each course or column with edges abutting. They can be aligned on the left gable end of the structure.

As shown in the figure, the marks ('6) arranged on the course of the panel (40) in the second course 8) The marks arranged on the course of Noel (40) in the second course are the same as those in the first course. located on the upper edge (44) of the panel in the to create a precise parallel alignment of the bottom or base (46) of the panels in the course. help. The base of the panel in the second course is also the groove in the /F flannel of the first course. or visually align each successive line with the guide mark line on the nail. ensure that the course is exactly parallel to the last course. Line (66) and end mark ( 68) Thus roofers can work together to produce accurate, correct, but minimal amounts of head. Overlap or overlapping is achieved by installing nine flanges in each successive course or row. Helps you make decisions easily when you are faced with a decision.

When installing the panel (40) on the roof or wall surface, the 1/2 inch (1,27u) thick CDx plywood or equivalent shroud or roof It is recommended that it be installed above the foundation. Cover before placing the cut panel on top should be covered with a layer of 15 lb. asphalt fel) or other material. . Nails or staples (72) are used to secure the panel in place; These fasteners fit over the nailing line in the narrow head overlap or lace area (62). or groove (66) to prevent exposure to the outside air. Generally galvanized Hardened roof nails or staples are recommended, usually 5 or 6 spaced fasteners. is used to hold a 48-inch long building wall in place. It will be done.

In practice, a panel with a nominal length of 48 inches can be easily handled by one person. Ru. A narrow starting string ( 74) is used for the first course, and the lower edge of the starting string is the starting point shown in Figure 2. below the i9 channel (4o) or above the thick butting edge (46) of the course of , a short distance away towards.

In a typical commercial embodiment of the invention, the panel (40) is about 47.5 mm. inch length and 1 to 6 inches Width dimension: 6 inch wide head overlap between upper edge (44) and button guide groove line (66) ). The panels are nominally 7716 inches thick and have 6 panels. Packed in a bundle. At this size, 10 of the building roof or wall structure Only 6 bundles are needed to cover 0 square feet or 1 square. A hole (4o) of this size has a surface area covered by a ``square equivalent''. It weighs approximately 240 pounds. This weight weighs a lot of asphalt roofing boards. However, (Nel (40) is a small number of squares needed to cover the surface. This is a great advantage when considered from the perspective of piece (36). Panel (40) is 4/124 Recommended for use on soft roof slopes, new structures as well as side slopes or roofs. Recommended for use when refinishing is done over old material that is already installed. It will be done.

The thread cover (65) at the end of the flannel automatically adjusts the precision thread or expansion thread. Provided to the pacer (54) to facilitate installation of the gunnel. side of spacer The amount of extension in the direction is such that the width of the joint is approximately equal to the width of the groove (76). ) so that they appear indistinguishable from each other. Between the expansions of adjacent panel edges The gap (54) is effectively installed after the panel (40) is exposed to the outside air. Reduce the possibility of warping or buckling.

Although the invention has been described with reference to several illustrative embodiments, the principles of the invention have been described. Numerous other modifications and implementations within the spirit and scope may be made by those skilled in the art. You should understand that you can do this.
